[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsm0372:
Alright, I scoured the Internet and XDA but could not find a reasonable answer to this issue, and by reasonable, I mean one that doesn't involve purchasing/installing a 3rd party application or changing my calendar solution to Google Calendar. To summarize, my Atrix is configured to sync with my Exchange Server. I get my contacts and calendar without any issues, however, I am unable to edit any calendar entries that are established from my desktop PC via Outlook and sync'd via Exchange Server to my phone. If, however, I create the entry on the phone, I am able to edit to my hearts content, and sync still works as expected. I believe this is a 'documented' bug with Froyo, but being new to the Android experience, I wanted to know if anyone on XDA was experiencing a similar issue and what, if any, workarounds were used to fix it. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I really want to keep using this phone because I think it's awesome, but these 'little bugs' in Android could be deal breakers for me in the end.

cant edit calendar entries

using Samsung Galaxy S and connected to our Exchange server, I can only edit entries created on the device. Entries that were synced from the Exchange are in view only mode.

Looking for a solution...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creeve4:
I was told by a t-mobile technical support rep. that my Vibrant running 2.2 will not sync properly over wifi, that I need a data plan to properly sync.

I have noticed that when running any 2.2 ROM only my primary Google calendar will sync, not the other 5 that I have on my account.

Has anyone else experienced problems syncing with Google using wifi only?

please help me...

my wildfire comes with android 2.1 then i updated it into froyo 2.2 "Official version" after i found that it can`t be rooted..i downgrade it again into 2.1

but now every time in enter HBOOT i found some msgs about missing PC49img is missing and if i tried to enter recovery it give me

E:failed to open Cache/recovery/command

help me please..
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
HBOOT 1.01 cannot be downgraded. Even though you may have downgraded Android 2.2.1 to Android 2.1, your HBOOT is updated, and remains intact even after the downgrade.

Sorry about it, but, it is entirely your fault. There are now atleast a thousand threads here which ask the same thing (how to root 2.2.1), or, also warn you not to update to 2.2.1 if you want to retain root ability. Now, you will have to join the queue till a solution comes. (Or find someone with an XTC Clip)

Anyhow, refer this thread, should serve as a progress report:

:confused:

i think 3xeno was being quite polite actually, there are ****loads of threads about 2.2 not being able to be rooted and also about ruu's and losing the ability to root.

i don't think it's laughing at someone that hasn't rooted phone, more being frustrated people don't search first.being either in forum or google, you can see for yourself how often new threads are started.

fair enough if you search and can't find an answer, but i would think it's getting to a point of forum etiquette. how can you expect people to take time to help, if you don't take the time to search?:)

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanemburghj:
You will need to root, don't try finding "free" root program. I spent 3 hours looking for one. Finally went with Root Explorer, pay for app off the market, (which by the way is great app) to go from Steve's 1.8 to official Dell 2.2 340. Now that I am on 340 not a fan of it, standing by till Steve gets Honeycomb ROM developed and will go with that.

But the real question is after I went through the headache of getting 340, is do you really want to make the leap? (See my answer above)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KJW73:
Is there anyone willing to help me with adb?

I just had to buy a new Dinc because I screwed the other one up so bad and I did not have any kind of backup on my computer! I did not know how to do anything whatsoever with the advanced with my last phone, even though I rooted it and get around a little bit and change ROM's and Kernals almost daily.

So, my question is: Is there anyone willing to help me go through and do everything with the adb step-by-step?

Also will someone help me to do whatever I have to do to setup a backup on my computer so that I won't have to go through losing everything and having to buy another phone?

Thank you very much!!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
What are you asking to do? What can't you do with adb? Your post is a bit confusing :confused:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Trying to help in your last thread (here), I have some questions:

What is your computer knowledge level here?

You can make a backup of the SD card by hooking it up to a computer, setting the phone from Charging to Disk Drive (unless you've defaulted it for Disk Drive mode when plugged into a computer), and dragging all the contents of the SD card to a folder on your computer. I suppose this could be done with internal storage too if you wanted...

In order to use ADB, you need to install Android SDK. ADB is a command you run from the command prompt. You'd use it to push, pull, and manually remove items from the system. I don't think you need ADB at this time. It doesn't do backups.

I know what you're thinking, "god this guy's being a ****". But if you're asking for help with something, especially something like using SDK, rooting phones, and flashing ROMS, there needs to be some idea of your level of experience/expertise with computers. I don't think your other phone was lost from the way it sounds. You could have spent less than $10 on a USB to SD card adapter, hooked it up to your computer, formatted the card as FAT32, downloaded a ROM, put the ROM on the SD card, put the SD card in your phone, then booted into recovery, and flashed the ROM.

Don't flash ROM's and kernels daily, stick with something for a bit until you understand what you are doing, and how things work. I don't think you can get a sense of how something is going to work if you're constantly flashing things. You need to give time so that the system can "settle". As far as the backups go, you are the backup for your SD card contents, so you have to back up everything to your PC once a week, once every two weeks, or a time that you feel is right.
[Galaxy Tab General] italia0101:
hay should I root my galaxy tab. What roms can you get and are they stable?
[Galaxy Tab General] silvatyrant:
Simple answer: Yes, root it.

Check the development threads for which ROMs are available for your region (Euro, Asia or US) and what sort of benefits they have. People will also post the bugs or good experiences they've had with their newly flashed ROMs there.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skylar.sutton:
I'm not a ROM developer, but I am an app developer... question for my fellow devs.

Android recently killed the use of MODIFY_PHONE_STATE for any third party app (only system apps can use it now)... which effectively kills the ITelephony.aidl hack many of us have been using.

I opened an enhancement request to restore functionality for 2.3.x and bring a better solution to the table for Android 2.3+ but Android just closed it with a "Working As Designed" tag.

Any thoughts on where to go next? It seems they aren't even willing to discuss alternative solutions.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skylar.sutton:
I fail to understand why. This is a developer specific question, and will only confuse most folks (non-developers) who read the Q&A section.
[General Questions and Answers] th3ant:
Hi Fellow old and New Devs,

The title suggests it all. I have four questions that I think ALL newbies want to understand. I would try and explain them, but as I am just coming out of the newbie stage, I'm sure people would prefer an answer from a experianced Dev.

When answering a question please put the Question Number. Feel free to answer only one or two of the questions, I'm sure other people will cover your missing fields of knowledge.

Here they are:

1. What is rooting? Can I root my device (HTC Buzz Wildfire) and keep the stock interface? Will I loose my data?

2. What do all these Dev's mean by Recovery? What are they, why are they needed?

3. What is a ROM? Do I need to be rooted for a custom ROM? How can you trust them? Will I loose my data when installing a custom ROM?

4. What is a Kernal? How are they Different to ROM's? Should I change from the stock Kernal?

I know this is a tall order and you could write a book on the topic, but please could you write a short (a couple of sentaces will do) paragraph on each question you choose to do.

When we get enough understandable answers I will edit this post publish the Final answers for other newbies in the future.

Also feel free to enter the poll! As this is a Dev site I presume one of the options will have the most votes but we will see....

Cheers for any contribution in advanced.

Gotta be something stupid......

Can't install 2.2 or 2.3. Tried two different ODIN flashers. When I do the reset I do not get the triangel with downloading in the center. I'm rooted, Have ROM Manager, Superuser, Root Explorer, Super Manager, I'm unlocked.

I have Android SDK, Congnitive 4.1, NPS, Samsung Kies,SGH I897 USB Drivers, What else? I think I have it covered. In any case I never get the download . Even if I do a "ROM Manager Install fron SD Card, the result is a screen, blue at top and yellow at bottom with the last line saying "Installing Multi- CSC. I can let it run all night, no change in ROM. Does the Captivate sold by ATT have some kind of block or filter keeping me from updating?

[General Questions and Answers] ninteddy:
didn't know where to ask this?

hello, everyone..

i have some questions, i'm hoping some of you can anwser.

I used unrevoked to root my htc desire. after that, I used alpharev to gain s-off.

everything went fine, i got the joker, the white screen that lets me pick different options..

now Í tried all those options, nothing works.

I've been searching all night for a solution, and it seems my recovery boot and rom are missing? and what I came across is installing ANDROID SDK tools, and then run fastboot to recover an image. So I installed SDK tools, but fastboot doesn't run, it says some .dll driver is missing. in the platform-tools map is that .dll driver, should i move it?

Can someone get me a step by step tutorial on how to make my desire work again? Im kind of a noob, all I needed was to make a screenshot..

Thanks in advance, it would be appreciated so much..

I'm not running 5.1.1, only 5.1, but I've not had these problems. Only FCs I've had are when going into system settings -> About Tablet -> Status, which FCs every time. Haven't found a reason why...
[G Tablet General] tekrhino:
This is a known issue with the supplement, if you have a previous backup from before flashing the supplement you should revert to that.
[G Tablet General] Jland:
Thanks guys,

any way to resolve? permissions on a file or anything...or should I just revery back to the previous 5.1?
[G Tablet General] tekrhino:
Best to revert back to 5.1

Also, the Status FC issue that doctorde is having also a known issue.

What you need to remember is, even though VEGAn 5.1 Beta is a pretty good ROM and can be used as a daily driver. It's still only a Beta ROM and there will be bugs with the OS. Technically it's still in development. But since it's original creator has decided to merge the VEGA project with the CyanogenMod 7 project, development has pretty much slowed to a turtles crawl and it's not entirely known if the VEGAn ROM will ever really see a "STABLE" version being released.

I can only guess since the VEGA/CM7 Merge began, all development is being directed towards a VEGA/Gingerbread ROM.

And when a Dev finally gets his/her hands on a System image, a boot image, an Nvidia or TegraII SDK for Honeycomb, I'm sure everyone and thier pets will be moving over to Android 3.0 which is pretty much designed for Tablets like the GTAB.

:cool:
